Meh. I already answered most of those questions but maybe you have reading comprehension issues. And what makes you assume I went to vote in person? More wrong assumptions piled on previous ones you've already made and won't acknowledge. At this point I think you're a troll, either that or just not very smart. I wouldn't've bothered with my original response had I known that. I'm always up for discussing these issues and learning something new, rearranging priorities as required, examining fallacies or misinformation and discarding any I can find, improving my viewpoints as a result. But doing so requires the other people involved to have some actual education about history, economics, science, cognitive dissonance, confirmation bias, etc. Engaging with you is only going to get vacuous insults like saying I have a "mental disorder"? Incisive, compelling arguments you have there. Bravo.
I'm not even really a "liberal", having plenty of viewpoints contrary to the Left when it comes to social programs, political correctness, feminism, nuclear power vs renewables, pacifism vs. military intervention, etc... but this country has veered so far to the Right in recent decades that our definitions of "centrist" has gotten warped as well, but in a global and historical sense that's the label I'd put on myself.
Anyway... this is pointless, no intelligent fact-based discussions to be had here. It's the Pit in an AAS forum anyway, lol, as tgunz pointed out.
Actually, let me ask one small political/philosophical question: Do you think the US military should be disbanded? Or if not, have its funding completely cut from the federal budget? It could obtain funding from private donations, perhaps "faith-based initiatives" as W. was so fond of... it could run bake sales to drum up cash, or depend on church donations. How would that square up with your beliefs?
